In a troubling turn of events, a surge in anti-Semitic incidents has been witnessed across the United States following the recent Hamas attacks on Israel. According to a new report by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), acts of hate against Jews have skyrocketed, causing deep concern among various communities.
During an attack outside a synagogue in Washington, D.C., a man was arrested after allegedly assaulting a congregant and menacing others with a foul-smelling spray. Eyewitnesses heard him shouting, 'Gas the Jews.' Similarly, at Cornell University, a student faces charges for threatening to kill Jewish students on campus. These distressing incidents are just a fraction of the nearly 3,300 anti-Semitic incidents tracked by the ADL between October 7th and January 7th, signifying an alarming 361% increase compared to the previous year.
